I really think they're changing too much. Trade Fisher? Come on! He's one of the emotional leaders of the team.

it will be terrible if we get anthony mason for fish.......I'm telling you guys.....FISH IS WAY TO VAUABLE TO US THIS YEAR

he'll still playt eh point with KB playing sf and GP playing SG, but get him off the bench.....that's a big spark. it would be terrible if we lose fish. terrible. he is still a great spark to this team.

I wouldn't trade fish for that hoodlum. How many times has Mason been arrested? Fisher is a model citizen and teammate. Mason has been proven to be a cancer in the locker room in the past. Why would we trade a team leader like Fish for him?

I hope we are clever enough to keep Derek. Maybe he is not the same player than 2 years ago but he is a leader, he knows the triangle, no one dive for a loose ball like him! If we need a PG from the bench it must be him. And as murcielago said, it's nice to get Malone and GP but changing too much and too fast is dangerous, moreover when you try to play inside the triangle.

Yea, I'm happy guest caught that....and it really does change things if its desmon mason. He is a young kid that can hop right out of the gym. I really feel that Fisher will help our cause greater this year...but Desmon will definitely help us out in the long run....its really a judgement call....but if Pargo can step up like I know he can, I say we go for it....You have to understand guys, that we need a supporting cast that Kobe can appreciate and play well with....we cannot limit ourselves to quick fix ups...we must start thinking along the lines of planning to build around Kobe, because in the next 3 years, Shaq, Malone, and GP would most likely be on their way out. Its really difficult, cause my mind says Desmon, but my heart says Fish.....let's go with Fish...sorry Mason!

I agree, if the Lakers are actually involved in trade talks about D. Mason, it would be a tough call to make. I think that Mitch would want to, and Phil would not, because Phil LOVES D.Fish. However, keep in mind that the Bucks will have to throw something else in, because Mason makes 1.8 and Fish makes 3.0.

It's not Anthony is Desmond Mason... I dont think this will go through... Fish has too much goin for himself over here, and rumors like this, are just rumors... We need him at backup PG, or maybe starting PG to run the team, and how is it gonna look if we just have GP and Pargo at PG!?

LAKER DYNASTY 2000,... I agree.... it would be a bad trade..
Mason.. would just be a bench warmer on our team.. and will not contribute unless he attends the slam dunking contest. FISHER is much more valuable to us... he will be our sixth man this year...

KEEP FISHER .... just leave our roster alone!!!!... we are SET for the 2003-2004 SEASON!!!!!

yes i know laker gyrl, i relazied that a little too late...but still. we have kareem rush....he might not be as good as D mason some day, maybe he will. but f dish will be more valuable to us than desmond mason........mason doesnt have a consistent shot anyway....we need people with range not athletisism...kobe, rush, D george and Cook wil give that to us this year...oh and shaq too. i dont think we can get anyone good for Dfish really, or anyone who can help us this year that much. fish will help us, an D fish is great with limited time.

no no no no no This can't be true!!! They can't do this to my baby!!! What are they stupid??? They can't just trade him. They're not gonna have a back-up PG. Idiots!!! :man7: I want a refund on my jersey... No what am I saying. I would never do that to my baby. OMG... They are so f*cking stupid... God... I am so gonna die if they trade him. I love him so much... He's my favorite player ever and in my heart he'll always be the best. My heart will break if they trade him... no no no no

Okay, calm down its just a rumor....jeez I hate to see what will happen to you with next year coming an all the rumors that will revolve around Kobe leaving. Just breathe easy...Fisher is pretty much not movin anywhere...for now...Muaahhhhahahhahha...just kidding

guy's you can't fall in love with roleplayers. the only players on the team who you can't trade are #34 & #8..... if fisher does not have a role on new and improved lakers then i'm all for trading him for someone who can play the role we'll need to be played, like a shooting forward because I don't think we can get a decent big man for fish.... i don't know just my opinion.

"YOU MUST SHOW NO MURCY- NOR HAVE ANY BELIEF WHATSOEVER IN HOW OTHERS JUDGE YOU- FOR GREATNESS WILL SILENCE THEM ALL"

We have Kobe, Payton, Fisher, George, and Pargo who can all gaurd the best, and quickest in the Leauge. Brining in another guard would be so pointless as it is, but to trade away one of the toughest and most experienced PG's in the leauge would just be stupid...

I read the entire link and saw nothing of Mason for Fisher, I did see however metion of Fish to Memphis (Sto. Swift).......but even if there was metion Mason for Fisher, I take that in a heart beat, you guys are way too emotional over Fish.....Desmond could help us way more, he is a good shooter a hell of an athlete and a hell of a defender......Fish is a good spot up shooter, a [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] ball handler, goood hustler and below average defender....Fish had one good playoff run in 2001, and has the worst handels of any point guard in the league, why do you think Kobe had to bring the ball up so much????
